Question 1

My baby usually ends up rolling into a corner of her crib in the night.  Will this create false alarms?

Accepted Answer

I haven't had ANY false alarm. I LOVE this! It was actually used in a research study!! Well worth the money. I LOVE that you can roll over and see it blinking to have peace of mind. As a NICU mom that came home with babies on medical monitors.. I feel this is just as good. Be careful of the sensitivity though. It can pick up fans and if the bassinet is close to your bed it can pick up your movements. So be sure to test it without the baby in while the fan is going and other regular movements around it. :-).

Question 2

We have a crib with the metal wire bottom, do we need to put something down to make it a flat surface or can the sensors be placed on that alone?

Accepted Answer

We have the same style metal mesh and the sensors kept going off (false alarm). We contacted Hisense and they told use to cut a peice of plywood the same size as the mattress and place that on the springs then the sensors. Also we discovered that something as simple as a ceiling fan beating air on the mattress was making the monitor think our daughter was breathing. We discovered that while testing it without her in the crib. Definitely test everything without the baby in the crib. Hope this helped.

Question 3

Will it work with the halo bassinet ? Will I need the wood pannels to support the sensors? Thanks

Accepted Answer

It should work. As with any movement monitor, it is important to make sure the base of the bassinet is hard to ensure a proper contact between the sensor and the mattress. If the base is soft, indeed you would need to add an extra plywood. Also, it is important not to use any vibration during the use of a movement monitor and to ensure the bassinet is not touching parents' bed.
Hope this is helpful.

Question 4

Is there a way to adjust the sensitivity? First night using it I got 2 false alarms so I want to increase the sensitivity.

Accepted Answer

Agree that you can't change the sensitivity on the newer ones. We ended up returning it due to do many false alarms. Even when she was centered in the crib and awake and kicking it would go off. We tried another unit and same problem. We tried all the recommendations from the company and nothing ever worked. My only guess is that it was our mattress (though the company said it shouldn't have been). We have a reversible foam mattress. The company's customer service was very responsive and tried hard to fix our problem, though.
